Question

What is the loose flap of skin on a cat’s belly called? 

Answer 1

The loose flap of skin on a cat's belly is called a dewlap. The dewlap is a fold of skin that hangs down from the neck and chest area and is more prominent in some breeds than others.

Answer 2

The primordial pouch, or belly flap, is a long stretch of skin that runs the length of your cat's tummy, but it most pronounced towards the rear. Instead of being closely attached to the muscle like the rest of your cat's skin, this flap is loose and naturally only has a thin layer of fat.
